Actually I think today's society is a lot less judgmental than even 50 or 100 years ago. Back then racism was much more open and blatant. As to how people are judged the most, difficult to answer, as it depends on the context- is this the first visual perception or is it how they are judged by someone who actually has talked to them and got to know them? I do think on first impression it is overall appearance that people use to form judgments-- that would be gender and race/ethnicity. Those are outward traits people see. If someone "knows" someone, as in actually talks to them and gets some background on that person, then I think judgments change based on the perceptions they garner from that discussion. So then things like religion and sexuality or even political party might have a stronger influence on the person making judgements than initial outward appearance perceptions. I know I have faults in judging people, and don't know if this is a fault or not but I tend to get colorblind as to what race or ethnic background someone I know is-- I have been asked for example - do you work with any black people? I said no-- but actually had two people who identify as black in my work. One was my good friend. I did not "identify" them as "black" once I got to know them but as the person I got to know-- their color was not relevant to that. I was raised racist, though, in an all white community so I was told blacks were bad or something to that effect. I still find myself stereotyping black people when I initially see them, and can't help that-- it is ingrained in me. But I work to overcome it, and have several good friends who are black and other races. And people may have a positive judgment about someone based on their outward appearance, but find out they are gay or atheist and suddenly show an intense dislike for that person- due to their own preconceived notions of what gays or atheists are supposed to be like. Would be nice if everyone just accepted everyone regardless-- as a human.
